🦋 KGX(1) — GNOME Console 🦋

okay bestie, welcome to the kgx page, section 1 of the manual (that's "general commands", iykyk), served fresh from GNOME Console. pull up a chair, we're doing terminal stuff and we're doing it cutely 💅

✨ NAME ✨

Console — a simple, user-friendly terminal emulator for the GNOME desktop 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

kgx [OPTION]

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. ✨

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Console is a simple terminal emulator for GNOME, and the way it adjusts nicely to small screen sizes and touch usage?? iconic. lowkey built different. it's giving "works on your laptop, works on your tiny screen, works when you're poking it with a finger like a menace" 💖

✨ OPTIONS ✨

🌸 Help Options

  • -h, --help — show help options. the classic. the moment. 🎀
  • --help-all — show all the help options, no crumbs left behind.
  • --help-gapplication — show the GApplication options, for when you need the app-layer tea.
  • --help-gtk — show the GTK+ options, for the toolkit girlies.

🌈 Application Options

  • --version — display the Console version. vibe check the build. ✨
  • --about — display Console's author and copyright information. give credit where credit is due, periodt 👑
  • -e, --command — execute the argument to this option inside the terminal. you hand it a command, it runs that command in there. no cap.
  • --working-directory=DIRNAME — set the working directory. DIRNAME is the place you wanna be. 📁
  • --wait — wait until the child exits. and bestie, I have to tell you the honest truth here: the original page literally says (TODO) next to this one 💀 so it's a promise, not a finished feature. don't come for me, I'm just the messenger 🫶
  • --display=DISPLAY — X display to use. yes it's an X thing. yes we're still saying it. 🌸
heads up: --wait is marked TODO in the original docs, so treat it as "not done yet" rather than "trust me bro".
